Popis: Multi-agents systems are frequently used to study complex phenomena and offer tools that interest urban specialists. The aim of this article is to present an example of an approach on the phenomenon of intra-urban migration in Bogota. Our model is based on one of the simplest form of multi-agent systems, kind of cellular automata, where migrants are seen as population flow. It allows us to build an artificial city, based on real census, and also to represent the behaviour of the population, determined by its representation of the different districts. This paper presents the formalism of the model and some results.
